Man Goes 555 Days Without A Heart
Stan Larkin, aged 25 went 555 days without a heart. He wears a backpack that powers an artificial heart that keeps him alive. Artificial hearts have been used on patients many times before, but not when they were not in hospital. Luckily Stan has just received a new heart.
My Opinion:
I think that an artificial heart could be used for more confusing and life changing things.
Source: I found this information on Kiwi Kids News.
My Wondering: Who invented the artificial heart? Answer: Paul Winchell
Words:
Replaced: Take the place of.
Temporary: Lasting for only a limited amount of time; not permanent.
Artificial: Made or produced by human beings, rather than occurring naturally, especially as a copy of something natural.
